USE_THREADS should not be defined in the SVN trunk any more; threads should always be used.  Nothing in Wireshark 
should be checking for USE_THREADS any more; if anything is, that's a bug.

The right fix is to get rid of OPTSTRING_t, and just put the "t" in the option string unconditionally.  All the stuff 
that checks whether USE_THREADS is defined should be rewritten to act as if it's always defined.
